Re: Vitamin C for children

[Guest guest]

Thanks for the info on Vitamin C. Any idea how much is a good kids

dose? 7 grams seems a lot for an 11 year old. I've been giving him 1

gram, 500 mg at a time.

Thanks

Hi Jim,

My CMT kids can handle a lot of vitamin C. I really studied up on dosing and

vitamin C research before we began our own trial.

The conclusion I came to was that 1 gram regular release won't do anything for

CMT. It won't even keep a cold away.

I had such a glowing report about my daughter on Friday. She has been on 8-10

grams of vitamin C since she was 11. She has really maintained her strength. I

believe she is the least effected CMT child that my doctor has seen. I only

believe this based on his amazement of her strength.

It was such a happy day

When I am talking about vitamin C I can only tell everyone what seems to work

for me and for my kids. Right now I have two CMT kids that won't take vitamin C

at all. I don't push the issue with them either. But when Adam takes it he looks

so good. His whole upper body gets bigger.

So please,parents, do your own research on vitamin C don't take my word for it.

We all need to be comfortable with what works for us. For now my boys are just

not into vitamins and that is okay.

Have a great day!

Hello again ,

Thanks for your input on the dosage of the Vitamin-C. Every little

bit helps. But if the Dr. is correct about the " half life " of

Vitamin-C being 2 weeks, and half of what is taken today is still in

our various cells 2 weeks down the road, we could be wasting $$$ un-

necessarily was his point, I believe. Do you or Gretchen know

anything about this " half life " of Vitamin-C?

it ok to give kids natural factors c500mg vit c with their dosage 1 capsule plus

a third of another capsule?

+++Hi Colleen. Yes they are quite okay, but the dose depends upon the child's

age as this article explains:
